Mykel walked in and there was one gaze that showed hostility toward him. The biggest Demon King compared to the others with a face in his chest with sharp teeth, Behemoth. He was furious when he found out that his daughter was no longer alive.

Although he was furious at Mykel, he couldn’t do anything and wasn’t stupid enough to fight him. Luciel had tried to explain it to Behemoth, but he didn’t care about all of it since what mattered to him was Mazikeen’s life, his daughter.

“So you have prepared for it? Are you planning on sending all the Demon Kings?” Mykel asked as he looked Behemoth in the eye. “That would be against the rule,” Mykel continued and turned his gaze toward Luciel.

“They’re here for something else. You all may leave,” Luciel said as she stared back at Mykel.

All the Demon Kings bowed down and teleported away to their own domain.

“I guess I don’t have to tell you anything because you already know what they were doing here,” Luciel stood up and walked down the stairs. “I heard from Angra that you brought his brother here,” Luciel said and looked at Angra chilling on the side with his tail wiggling left and right slowly.

“I brought Lyneth here as well, and they both are currently out there exploring the islands,” Mykel answered.

Luciel hummed as she looked outside the window and felt a divine power that didn’t belong to the Empyrean World.

“You’re planning on using Zasalamel to help you fight against Hanessi?” Mykel asked.

“As the protector of Gehenna, he should be able to help my sisters. I have informed him about the circumstances, and he’s willing to help because he had fought my father’s siblings back then. He’s more experienced than me, and with the information that I got from the Demon Kings, I know enough about Hanessi,” Luciel answered and nodded her head.

“We are going to proceed with the plan a month from now. When the time comes, you’re the only one who can break that sword,” Mykel said.

Luciel hummed and nodded with understanding.

“It’s time for her to take the remaining of Hanessi’s soul,” Mykel said as he looked at Luciel. “Summon her here,” Mykel continued.

Luciel invited Jeanne to the Empyrean World, and it only took a second for Jeanne to come. She looked around and was confused about why she got invited to the Empyrean World until she realized Mykel was standing behind her.

“Is it time?” Jeanne asked nervously.

“Not yet, we are going to do this a month from now. I need to be there for Lyneth, she’s going to give birth to Elena. There’s something I need to know about my daughter first,” Mykel answered.

“I see, that’s good to hear,” Jeanne sighed in relief. “So, why did you bring me here?” Jeanne asked.

“To take the remaining soul. Follow us,” Mykel said.

The three of them went to the nine divinities. Since Jeanne couldn’t fly, she hopped onto Angra’s back and carried her there.

Jeanne stood in front of Hanessi’s throne with her Soul Catcher Sword ready in her hand. She looked at Mykel and waited for him to give the signal. The moment Mykel nodded his head, she raised her sword and cut the throne in half.

A ball of light came out from the throne, and Mykel ordered Jeanne to cut it immediately. Jeanne dashed and jumped to reach the ball of light, and then she slashed through it.

The light got sucked into the blade, and Jeanne’s whole body got electrocuted by the power. She fell to the ground really hard with the sword still in her hand.

When Mykel went to check Jeanne’s condition, her eyes turned all white. She was unconscious and conscious at the same time, but she didn’t respond to Mykel’s words at all.

“Jeanne Dvar, my last hope…” A soothing manly voice said.

Jeanne felt a burst of wind struck her face and immediately opened her eyes. She looked at a man covered in white cloth that was wrapped around his body. She then looked around and saw herself surrounded by white clouds and chill winds. It felt like she was floating in the sky, but she could move around so freely.

The man had a slim body and long silver hair that covered his chest and all the way down to his feet. He looked calm and collected as his silver eyes stared her in the eye. He looked similar to Lucifer but looked more dignified compared to him.

“Hanessi?” Jeanne asked as she rubbed her waist but then realized the sword wasn’t on her body.

The man gently smiled as he slowly walked toward her. The moment he stood right in front of her, he gently put his right hand on her cheek, but Jeanne slapped his hand away.

“Don’t try me,” Jeanne said as she glared at Hanessi.

“It appears you already knew everything,” Hanessi said as he suddenly choked Jeanne with both hands. “I can read your memories, and looks like you’re trying to scheme against me and planning to take my powers,” Hanessi continued as Jeanne tried to free herself from his grasp, but he was too strong for her.

The longer she was strangled by Hanessi, the less strength she had as if her power was being sucked by him. She couldn’t speak or resist as if her body was being controlled by him and only followed his command. She was slowly losing consciousness and before she finally lost her consciousness, she looked at Hanessi who was grinning at her.

“Jeanne!” Mykel shouted and it woke Jeanne up.

She was back in the Empyrean World, and when she looked at Mykel’s worried expression, she felt a sting on both her wrists. She looked at her hands and realized her hands had been cut off. She looked at Luciel who was holding the handleless sword with her blood on the blade.

“He’s too powerful, Mykel. He’s dangerous and-” Jeanne said as she massaged her wrists.

“I know, that’s why we the Gods or anyone with Divine power are no match for him since he can control them as he pleased. It’s just like in the story that I told you. The ones who managed to defeat him were the demons since they didn’t hold any divine powers,” Mykel answered and cut off Jeanne’s sentence since he didn’t want to make her panic and prevented her from doubting the plan.

Although he was comforting Jeanne, he was overwhelmed by how powerful Hanessi’s [Caelestikinesis] skill was. To think his power was so easily absorbed without even him being able to prevent or stop it. If Luciel didn’t cut Jeanne’s hands, Hanessi might get all the powers that he possessed.

If Mykel hadn’t checked on Jeanne’s [Character] story, he wouldn’t have known that she was encountering Hanessi, and she would have been possessed by Hanessi by now. Mykel tried to remove her hands from the sword, but her hands were glued to the sword. Not only that, Mykel felt like his power was being sucked when he touched her body rapidly.

Luciel decided to cut off Jeanne’s hands and kicked the sword away from them because it started to ooze divine power. The moment she separated Jeanne from the sword, the sword lost its power. She knew it was the only way to stop Hanessi from taking over Jeanne and Mykel’s powers.

Mykel helped Jeanne regenerate her hands back and then helped her stand up. He decided to use [Telekinesis] and stabbed the sword on the ground because it was too dangerous to hold. It was better to keep the sword there in the meantime for everyone’s safety.

“The job is done, and all we have to do now is wait,” Luciel said as she started at Jeanne’s hands which got decapitated and were still holding the sword. “

While the three of them were staring at the sword, Spenta landed with Lyneth on his back.

“Mykel?! Did something happen?” Lyneth jumped down and hurriedly walked toward Mykel with a worried expression.

“It’s nothing, I’m just surprised, that’s all,” Mykel answered as he looked at Lyneth.

Lyneth was worried because Elena told her about the feeling that Mykel had earlier. Elena was worried that something bad had happened since she could feel a powerful divine power that didn’t belong to Mykel.

Spenta and Angra had finally met each other and it made both Luciel and Mykel worried since they both were hissing at each other. They both tried to prevent Angra and Spenta from fighting each other by calming them down telepathically.

“So this is what you meant, Elena?” Lyneth asked as she stood in front of the Soul Catcher Sword.

“Miss Lyneth! Don’t!” Jeanne shouted as she watched Lyneth reach out her hand at the sword.

Lyneth held the sword, but nothing happened. It surprised Mykel, Luciel, and Jeanne because Lyneth was unharmed, or to be precise, wasn’t affected by the sword at all.

“Lyn, don’t touch that sword,” Mykel said.

Lyneth was so confused and she could easily remove her hand from the sword.

“What’s wrong with the sword? I feel nothing and nothing is weird about the sword,” Lyneth asked.

“No, the weird one is you,” Luciel said in disbelief.
